    The official EN World puppy/doggo thread

    I'm so sorry. It's never easy. Buddy seems like he was a great friend.

    What are your "dumbest" TTRPG costs

    Dice for me too! I have (so far) resisted a beautiful etched glass set that's over $100 Canadian. So far...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Memory not so reliable... It really felt like the end...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Really? I don't remember that. Let's bring the healer back! 🦄😀

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Theses are my Warlord class recollections: Near the end of 3.5 WotC published a miniatures/warfare type supplement. It introduced the Marshall and Healer classes. The book was not well received, except for the Marshall class. 4e came out not too long after, and the Marshall moved into the new...

    D&D General D&D "influencers" need to actively acknowledge other games.

    Ginny mentioned a few times that she loves D&D and isn't that interested in switching games. Having said that, she mentioned Fate on a video a while back, suggesting that its way of building character connections to each other and the world could be adopted to 5e. She occasionally talks about...

    What makes an TTRPG a "Narrative Game" (Daggerheart Discussion)

    I'm playing in a game right now with lots of roleplaying, deep drama, personal conflicts and tricky moral decisions. The players have choices in a sandboxy way on where we will go and how we'll deal with situations. The game is Shadowdark! Aha, you might say. Doesn't this prove that any game can...

    Not DnD | Action-Heroes RPG

    D&D absolutely dominates the rpg landscape. "Not D&D" is not an insulting name, just a place to showcase other games, and independent creators. Also, D&D has that brand name recognition similar to Kleenex. "Not Pathfinder" wouldn't really work. It's a great show, not a hate WotC show.

    D&D 5E Delve from Bob World Builder and Others

    It's doing really well on KS, so yes, market can support more.😊

    D&D 5E Delve from Bob World Builder and Others

    Planning on backing Shadowdark version too. Looks great.

    What's great about RPGing?

    Creating characters, roleplaying them and flinging them headlong into trouble to see what happens.

    When, How and What Do You Play?

    @Campbell, we enjoyed playing Brindlewood Bay and curious about The Between. How is it?

    When, How and What Do You Play?

    I'm running Old Gods of Appalachia from Monte Cook Games and alternating it with Black Sword Hack. I'm playing in a Shadowdark campaign that my husband is running. We play in person and fairly regularly. It's the same group of people and just 4 of us in total. We're old and retired or...

    Who are the really interesting modern TTRPG designers?

    Ahh. My first experience was 2nd. The bestiary and Fae book for the game were so good.

    Who are the really interesting modern TTRPG designers?

    I get that games like Nobilis can be hard to actually play at the table. But Ars Magica? Isn't that more of a taste thing? I would never link ham-fisted with Ars Magica. It's brilliant and entirely playable. 😁 Thanks for heads up on The Far Roofs. I'll definitely check it out. We have the fancy...

    Critical Role's 'Daggerheart' Open Playtest Starts In March

    Posters with concerns about fear tokens have actually played, so this feels like an area that could use some tinkering. Has anyone, who is playtesting, run into the problem of players not taking turns because other players have more combatant characters?

    D&D (2024) Here's The New 2024 Player's Handbook Wizard Art

    Let's assume the glasses are being worn to correct vision. How could the wizard get her eyes fixed magically? Maybe Heal but that's a 6th level divine spell, and I'm not sure blurry vision would count as a disease. Even if Heal would work, I'm not sure a deity would be willing to channel that...

    D&D General Bob World Builder Recreates WOTC's "Do You Like Me?" Survey!

    I agree and have been feeling the same. The accusations are strange.

    D&D General Bob World Builder Recreates WOTC's "Do You Like Me?" Survey!

    This is a cynical take that does not line up with Bob World Builder at all.

    D&D General Bob World Builder Recreates WOTC's "Do You Like Me?" Survey!

    Bob's was released before it closed. He was just curious because it seemed unlikely that WotC's would get released. If it did, it'd be interesting to see if results were similar. It's just for fun. That's all there is. No pot stirring or trying to "get WotC." No toxic, see how much WotC is...
